Analysis Summary Pipeline #186

I'd like to create something similar to the primary processing block, #161, for analysis, with the idea that the backend could be transferred over to Bokeh or similar later.

I think the easiest way to accomplish this might be a build a data dictionary backend, that would let people operate on the metadata, and then a holding object for the classes able to interact with that object. Test could go on top.

This way, we can have light weight, individual notebooks for each analysis step, and hopefully just switch out plotting code at some point.

I see the steps as:

This may be redundant with other repositories, although I think the first step is unique to American Gut.
